Art, love and freedom of expression! Creative Burning Man outfit ideas inspired by Lollapalooza’s hottest celeb looks

This summer we saw some great fashions at music festivals like Coachella, Governors Ball and Bonnaroo, but none were more exciting than the ones worn by the artists at Lollapalooza.

The festival’s diverse lineup – think 30 Seconds to Mars, Lana Del Rey and Lainey Wilson – results in a mix of fashion influences from different music genres.

Heading to Burning Man on August 27 and not sure what to wear? Attendees at an annual Nevada event are encouraged to express their individuality through their clothing choices. FEMAIL is inspired by artists who stole the show in Chicago.

Choose over-the-top garments that adhere to the festival’s principles

Lollapalooza takes place in multiple cities and has a vibrant and energetic atmosphere, which is often reflected in the fashion choices of the artists.

Sofi Tukker’s Sophie Hawley-Weld was unforgettable in a pink PatBO look.

The 31-year-old singer wore a sheer cut ombre jumpsuit with striking sleeves, with a multi-colored feather trim.

While feathers are just the right amount of flair for a Burning Man look, leaving no trace is one of the festival’s ten principles.

So instead of wearing feathers that can fall off (think cheap boas) and become MOOP (matter out of place), opt for a piece of clothing with fringe!

The Burning Man style allows visitors to freely express their identity and artistic sides.

In fact, there’s no limit to the way you can show off your personality through your wardrobe – or lack of clothing – choices at Burning Man.

Suki Waterhouse joined Sophie in Lollapalooza in a unique ensemble.

The ‘Daisy Jones and The Six’ actress rocked out in a lace jumpsuit with a ruffled neckline that showed off her dazzling bra.

Burning Man is known for its emphasis on radical self-expression, creativity and non-commercialism.

Take a tip from Suki and make heads in a look that shows off some skin in a tasteful way, while keeping in mind that an outfit that allows for movement to dance and participate in various activities is key .

A thong bikini under a fringed kimono, paired with cropped shorts, will keep you cool and looking good in the desert.

Don’t be afraid to step out of your comfort zone

Burning Man contestants often wear unique costumes that are whimsical, fantastical, or themed.

These costumes can range from futuristic to historical or provocative, often blurring the lines between everyday wear and theatrical attire.

Jared Leto mixed elements of rock, indie and art in his eclectic take on Grant Park.

The Thirty Seconds to Mars frontman had the Lollapalooza crowd on their feet in a terrifyingly cool look.

Jared wore a black shirt embroidered with ivory beads that mimicked the appearance of a human skeleton.

Red leather gloves and blue eye makeup completed his glam rock look.

Sabrina Carpenter brought pop culture vibes to the Chicago stage in a bright pink crop top and matching skirt.

On top, the star’s ensemble consisted of a heart-shaped bustier with diamond-encrusted straps, and a micro-mini skirt with built-in hot pants on the bottom.

She completed the look with white platform boots.

Burning Man visitors often embrace bold, unconventional and creative clothing choices, so tap into your inner Jared or Sabrina and opt for something kitsch.

Some guests even lean towards performance attire, such as circus-inspired outfits or steampunk attire.

Tap into your roots, but give it a provocative Burning Man twist

Burning Man’s diverse and inclusive community often leads to visitors incorporating elements from different cultures into their outfits.

Country singer Lainey Wilson stayed true to her southern roots as she performed at Lollapalooza in a western-inspired look.

The “Heart Like a Truck” singer wore a yellow farmer’s shirt with moss green wide-leg pants.

She accessorized with a cowgirl hat, oversized sunglasses, multiple rings and a brown braided belt.

American rapper Yung Gravy also showed his flair for western fashion in a printed shirt and cowboy hat.

Burning Man style encourages fearless choice and eclectic combinations, so don’t be afraid to mix and match different textures, patterns and styles.

Want to wear your favorite western-inspired peasant top? No problem! But combine it with latex underwear and a nice hat!

Many attendees create their own outfits by repurposing clothing, adding handmade embellishments or using recycled materials, as upcycling and DIY are central to the event’s sustainable ethos.

Experiment with accessories and apply body paint or face makeup, but be practical when it comes to footwear so you can enjoy the amazing interactive artwork, music and people.
